Challenge #72

Ok, looks like it's my turn to do this. Thanks to Atupdate for choosing me
Challenge ends on Thursday, May 17th, at 1pm GMT.

I've chosen the following pic because I've never found a fitting PP for it. You can find out how I postproduced it on both my website, Flickr or PPG, but I suggest you not to do that until you've come up with your personal vision (and again, I didn't find my way that much satisfying).


And here are the mediafire files:

RAW > Challenge_72.PEF

JPEG > Challenge_72.jpg

Hope you'll enjoy it.

Dario

Moved the histogram a bit to the left before converting the Raw image. Then did a few of my favorite tricks in Paint Shop Pro.

Had to black and white in my eyes. Kept the crop as I liked it as it was.

Just because that's one of my nasty habits (I mean, have a cigar when wandering thru the woods).

Not particularly pleased with the result, but that's more or less how I like it...

BTW, congrats on your win!

Cheers!

The hardest part is trying to figure out how tan he is. In some of your gallery images, he looks like he spends a lot of time outside.

Yes, his skin is a bit dark, tough being still caucasian. We could say he's mediterranean (because he is).
